I've driven the MT DR's in the rain and they arent bad as long as you drive carfully and i wouldnt get over 40-50mph on them... My hoosiers on the other hand. if you spit on the ground I'm all over the road.

I have 6 wheels. Two fronts stay on all the time. Two sets for the rears have ET streets on one pair, and two have Sumi street tires. I swap out the rears depending on driving conditions. During the summer, the streets stay on, during the cold weather the Sumis stay on. But I swap at my preference.

skinnies up front for a DD seems like a terrible idea, no offense

So, it looks like the rears would rub here. Do the rear fenders hit the top of the tires when you hit a pot hole?

So here is my work in progress. Odd choice, I know, but I did go with some all season radials. I think I'll order another set of rears with the nitto 555rs here soon, as I'm not really diggin' on the truck style rear tires.
